+ All formal documents are maintained in docbook SGML and located in the

+ DTD's and the Docbook modular stylesheets (or comparable alternatives),
+ and either <application>jade</application> or
+ <application>openjade</application> (recommended) installed in order to

+ <ulink url="../faq/index.html"><citetitle>FAQ</citetitle></ulink>, and, of

+ The <citetitle>README</citetitle>, <citetitle>AUTHORS</citetitle>
+ <citetitle>privoxy.1</citetitle> (man page) files are also now maintained
+ as Docbook SGML. The finished files are all in the top-level source
+ directory are generated files! Also, <filename>index.html</filename>, the
+ <application>Privoxy</application> home page, is maintained as SGML.
+ <emphasis>DO NOT edit these directly</emphasis>. Edit the SGML source, or

+<title>Quickstart to Docbook and SGML</title>
+<para>
+ If you are not familiar with SGML, it is a markup language similar to HTML.
+ Actually, not a mark up language per se, but a language used to define
+ markup languages. In fact, HTML is an SGML application. Both will use
+ <quote>tags</quote> to format text and other content. SGML tags can be much
+ more varied, and flexible, but do much of the same kinds of things. The tags,
+ or <quote>elements</quote>, are definable in SGML. There is no set
+ <quote>standards</quote>. Since we are using
+ <application>Docbook</application>, our tags are those that are defined by
+ <application>Docbook</application>. Much of how the finish document is
+ rendered is determined by the <quote>stylesheets</quote>.
+ The stylesheets determine how each tag gets translated to HTML, or other
+ formats.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+ Tags in Docbook SGML need to be always <quote>closed</quote>. If not, you
+ will likely generate errors. Example: <literal><title>My
+ Title</title></literal>. They are also case-insensitive, but we
+ strongly suggest using all lower case. This keeps compatibility with
+ [Docbook] <application>XML</application>.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+ Our documents use <quote>sections</quote> for the most part. Sections
+ will be processed into HTML headers (e.g. <literal>h1</literal> for
+ <literal>sect1</literal>). The <application>Docbook</application> stylesheets
+ will use these to also generate the Table of Contents for each doc. Our
+ TOC's are set to a depth of three. Meaning <literal>sect1</literal>,
+ <literal>sect2</literal>, and <literal>sect3</literal> will have TOC
+ entries, but <literal>sect4</literal> will not. Each section requires
+ a <literal><title></literal> element, and at least one
+ <literal><para></literal>. There is a limit of five section
+ levels in Docbook, but generally three should be sufficient for our
+ purposes.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+ Some common elements that you likely will use:
+</para>
+

+ <member>
+ <emphasis><para></para></emphasis>, paragraph delimiter. Most
+ text needs to be within paragraph elements (there are some exceptions).
+ </member>
+ <member>

+ <para>
+ <application>Privoxy</application> documentation is using
+ a number of customized <quote>entities</quote> to facilitate
+ documentation maintenance.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ We are using a set of <quote>boilerplate</quote> files with generic text,
+ that is used by multiple docs. This way we can write something once, and use
+ it repeatedly without having to re-write the same content over and over again.
+ If editing such a file, keep in mind that it should be

+ contexts without additional modifications.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ We are also using what <application>Docbook</application> calls
+ <quote>internal entities</quote>. These are like variables in
+ programming. Well, sort of. For instance, we have the
+ <literal>p-version</literal> entity that contains the current
+ <application>Privoxy</application> version string. You are strongly
+ encouraged to use these where possible. Some of these obviously
+ require re-setting with each release (done by the Makefile). A sampling of

+ in the doc. To make this happen, just reference the now defined
